Boris, seems to have a fixation with leaving behind a legacy. He was quite keen on statues for a bit. Then bridges. Maybe a tunnel. High speed railway. Lots of big capital spending in the latest budget. A few kids around to carry on his name. The man who did Brexit. The man who took a different stance against the rest of the world on Corona virus. My NAME will live on!! And supposedly can be a bit economical with the truth.
Remind you of anyone..

Thing is, one way or another, he will be remembered...

@Mockerswithnoknockers yes! I love Mr toad! Let's hope Boris doesn't share his love of speed quite so much haha x

He's Robert Baratheon at best

You, ma'am, are a voice of wisdom and perspicacity.

Robert Baratheon because of the shagging about and creating lots of kids with various women. Cummings is more Tywin-like

Cummings is Littlefinger.

Nah, Tywin is hot.

Yes Anne! ‘Chaos is a ladder...’

His legacy will be to be remembered as a complete an utter hypocritical, power greedy, two timing fool of the highest order.

*You know you have your finger on the pulse when you have to use Harry Potter GOT as a reference point.

It has even become a meme across the internet that those that do can be safely ignored*

People have always compared politial figures to fictional characters.

Robert Baratheon was a warrior who took to the bottle because he was bored in peacetime. That’s not Boris.
